Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Expand young adult concert audiences through Mix and Theoroi programs, and retiree audiences for daytime concerts at the Ordway. Evaluation is by tracking attendance, new ticket-buyers and through post-concert surveys. We will assess success, demographics and attitudes to the music presented at the performances. 2: Engage diverse communities by expanding youth music programs in community centers (KidsJam) and for families with autism. We will track participating community centers and demographic information of participating youth for KidsJam and Sensory-friendly Family Concerts. We will review partner organization programs.

Measurable Outcome(s)

New younger audience members attended informal Schubert Club Mix concerts, and attendance of retired people increased at daytime concerts. Tracked attendance of new audience members by ticket sales and observation at concerts, and Theoroi used social media to discuss performances. 2: 20 KidsJam workshops reached culturally diverse youth at four area community centers, and 110 people touched by autism attended Sensory-Friendly concerts. In partnership with the community centers, youth participants engaged in KidsJam provided feedback from their experiences. Families attending Sensory-Friendly concerts expressed gratitude for interactive concerts that embrace their children affected by autism.
